Viking Security Safe is a company stationary in the USA and has been around since 2014. They specialize in building high-quality biometric safes in various sizes. Since it’s a fairly new brand, many people don’t know much about their safes. That’s where we come into the picture.

We have seen the demand for the Viking Security Safes grow over the last few years. We had them featured as one of the best biometric gun safes early on, so we saw it coming. And now the time has come, when we feel that we need to devote a whole article to discuss these great safes.

Are All the Viking Security Safes the Same?

To answer the question — mostly, yes. They may not look all the same but the technical features they have is more or less the same in all Viking safes.

The minor differences you will see, is when it comes to the thickness of the steel. Sometimes there can also be an extra feature in one of the safes. It could, for example, be an extra shelf in one of the bigger safes.

We are now going to spend some time explaning all the common features shared by all the Viking safes.

Fingerprint Technology Approved by the F.B.I

The first and most exciting feature shared by all the Viking Security Safes is the biometrics. And it’s not the average biometric technology which you see in most other biometric safes. No, these safes feature a hyper sensitive 500 DPI Optical Sensor.

Unless you are into sensors, it might not tell you a whole lot. But the fact that it’s approved by the F.B.I, will tell you a whole lot about the quality of this sensor. If you are looking for a reliable biometric safe with awesome biometric — we approve of these safes.

When it comes to actually using the biometrics, you will be able to easily register up to 32 fingerprints. You will then be able to access the safe by simply pressing your finger against the scanner. The opening process, from scanning your finger to unlocking the safe, will take less than a second.

Seamless, Laser Cut, and Pry-resistant Design

All Viking safes are also equipped with two 20 mm motorized steel locking bolts. So instead of turning a knob, the bolts will retract automatically. This will make the process of opening and closing the safe much faster.

Keypad with LCD Display

It’s rarely a good idea to rely solely on one lock, especially if you are looking for a reliable safe. That’s why Viking Security Safe has a dual lock. Besides the biometric lock, you will also find an electronic keypad lock in all of their safes.

With the help of the keypad, you can program your own personal pin code of four to eight digits long. From this clean interface, you can also change settings such as disabling the “beep” sound.

With the LCD Display, you will be able to see all the operations made on the safe. You can also see the battery status as well as an icon that illustrates whether the safe is locked or not.

Reliable Access in Three Different Ways

Reliable access at any time is extremely important. The last thing you want to happen is being locked out from your own safe in a critical situation. With the Viking Security Safe — you won’t have to worry about that.

As we mentioned earlier, all Viking Security Safes has a dual lock. But there is, in fact, up to three possible ways to access the safe. With your fingerprint, your pin code OR with the override keys. It’s simply not on the map to get locked out from a Viking Security Safe!

Fully Carpeted, Adjustable Interior with LED Light

Another thing you will see in all Viking Security Safes is a fully carpeted interior. This will protect your valuables and make sure that they stay scratch free!

An integrated LED light is another shared feature by the Viking Security Safes. This premium feature will illuminate the interior so you can easily access your content at night.

There are also removable shelves that you can adjust to suit your specific storage needs.

Additional Security Features

The Viking Security Safes are very sturdy and secure. There are a few additional security features, however, that will make them even more secure.

First of all, we have the warning alarm that will activate if you leave the safe unlocked for more than a minute. Then we have the lockout feature that will lock the safe after too many incorrect entry attempts.

Additionally, all Viking Security Safes have 4 pre-drilled holes. These can be used to ground the safe which will help to prevent burglars from stealing it.

Viking Security Safe Has a Safe for Everyone

Viking Security Safe has an impressive diversity when it comes to their biometric safes. They may all share the same technical features, but they all vary in size and design.

That’s why we believe there is a Viking Security Safe for everyone. There are small, medium and large safes available. There is a laptop safe, a hidden wall safe, a drawer safe, and a depository safe.

It doesn’t matter what size you need or what you intend to secure — there will be a Viking Security Safe for you.
